Various aminosilanes are disclosed in the chemical literature. The invivo fungicidal activity of several aminosilanes containing a substituted phenyl 10 group or an N-morpholinopropyl group bonded to silicon is discussed in an article by E. Lukevics et al. [Latv.
PSRZinat.Akad. Vestis, Kin. Serv. 3, 343-349 (1978)].
These compounds exhibit at most only moderate activity S° against wheat rust, tomato late blight and cucumber 15 t o powdery mildew. None of the compounds disclosed in this reference contain both a substituted aryl group and an aminoalkyl group wherein the nitrogen atom is part of a morpholine ring.
S" 20 European Patent Application No. 0241429 1 discloses interalia certain silicon morpholino compounds ,o which may be represented by the formula: 35,835-F -1(r ~1 i I i-2- I-2-

20 The biological activity of compounds structurally related to those patents disclosed in EP Application No. 0241429 (above) is discussed in an article by E.H. Pommer [Pesticide Sci. 15, 285-295 S(1984)]. In this article on page 291, line 1, the 1125 author observes that it was firmly believed ("known") S' in 1984 that for compounds of this general type, the "alkyl chain length must have less than 4 members. The "alkyl chain length" to which he refers corresponds to the length of the chain -CH 2 -Si-R 1 in Formula A above, Ssince Pommer is concerned with the carbon-containing S, analogues of the silicon-containing compounds of Formula A.
This belief that the maximum permissible chain length in the group linking phenyl and morpholine 4 t i 35,835-F -2- -3should be no more than 3 has been widely held, as is illustrated by EP Patent Application No. 0241429 (above).
Surprisingly, it has now been found that compounds of Formula A above in which R1 is an npropylene or an n-butylene group, optionally substutited with 1 or 2 methyl groups, show unexpected fungicidal activity. Accordingly, the present invention provides aryl substituted morpholinyl silanes of the formula: R CH 3 (CH2)n--Si-- R 1 N 0 Am R

The term "halomethyl" as used in the present specification and claims designate a methyl radical containing from 1 up to 3 halogen atoms, which may be the same or different.
The term "halogen" represents Br, Cl or F.
Preferred compounds of the invention are those on which A is trifluoromethyl, CI-C 4 alkyl, Cl or F.
More preferred compounds are those where R1 is npropylene or n-butylene.
All the organic and inorganic acids which form stable physiologically-acceptable salts are suitable for salt formation with compounds of Formula Examples of such salts are chlorides, bromides, iodides, sulphates, phosphates, acetates, oxalates, fumarates, malonates, alkylsulphonates, arylsulphonates, alkylarylsulphonates, octanoates and S; 25 oleates.
The salts are obtained by mixing the corresponding acid with the free amine of Formula if necessary in an inert solvent, distilling off the solvent and recrystallizing the residue as necessary.
Alternately, water soluble salts such as phosphates and acetates may be prepared as aqueous solutions, for ease 4 4 of formulation, by neutralization of the free amine in an equimolar amount of the acid. Oil soluble acid t .4-1 3 t 1 9 1 35,835-F -e derivatives such as the oleate may also be prepared by a similar means in an organic solvent such as xylene.
The compounds of Formula effectively control a variety of undesirable fungi which infest useful plant crops. Many of the compounds are particularly effective against organisms such as Erysiphe graminis which cause powdery mildew of grains, particularly barley and wheat, Psuedocercosporella (eye sport on wheat and barley), and Pyricularia (rice blast).
Compositions containing the compounds of Formula (I) together with a carrier can be applied to the roots, seeds or foliage of the barley or other plants and will kill or control the growth of various fungi without damaging the commercial value of said plants. Many of these compositions are unique because of their systemic action and because of the very low levels of chemical required to control powdery mildew.
20 20 These chemicals may be prepared as dusts, granular formulations, wettable powders, flowable concentrates, or emulsifiable concentrates.
I
The invention includes within its scope a method for the killing or controlling of fungus diseases which attack plants or plant parts which comprises applying to the plants or plant parts a fungicidally effective aomount of a compound of Formula or a composition in accordance with the invention.
Another advantage of the present invention is that a single application of the compositions can provide a residual control of powdery mildew diseases 35 over an extended period. Also, the compounds can be effective in eliminating established barley powdery f.
35,835-F r, -6mildew infestation. Furthermore, many compounds have been found to be translocated in plants and, thus, can provide a systemic protection against powdery mildew.
5 The method of the present invention comprises contacting plants, especially cereal grain plants, with a fungicidal amount of one or more of the compounds of Formula The present invention also embraces the employment of a liquid, powder, dust or granular composition containing one or more of the active compounds of Formula in intimate admixture with inert, non-phytotoxic materials, known in the art as agricultural adjuvants and/or carriers, in solid or liquid form. Thus, for example, the active compound(s) can be admixed with one or more additives including organic solvents, petroleum distillates, water or other liquid carriers, surface active dispersing agents, and finely divided inert solids. In such compositions, the active ingredients are present in a concentration from 2 to 95 percent by weight, preferably 10 to 95 percent by weight, and most advantageously 10 to 75 percent by weight of the morpholinyl silane compound. The compound of Formula can be employed in the form of diluted flowable compositions or a wettable powder composition containing 2 to 10,000 ppm of morpholinyl silane compound, preferably 10 to 600 ppm are employed.
When the carrier contains a surface active agent, from 0.1 to 20 percent by weight of the active ingredient is advantageously employed. Depending upon the concentration in the composition, such augmented compositions are adapted to be employed for the control of the undesirable fungi or employed as concentrates Sand subsequently diluted with additional inert carrier, e.g. water, to produce the ultimate treating 383--6 35,835-F -6- -i -1 a _I -7compositions. In general, good results can be obtained with liquid compositions containing from 0.0001 to percent by weight of the toxicant in the final diluted form. With dusts, good results can usually be obtained with compositions containing from 0.1 to 2.0 percent or more by weight of toxicant. Where the compositions are to be applied to foliage of plants, it is preferred that the toxicant be present in an amount not to exceed about 0.8 percent in liquid compositions and about percent in dusts. In terms of hectarage application, good controls of powdery mildews can be obtained when the active ingredients are applied to growing plants at a dosage of from 0.004 to 4 kg/hectare. When employed dS fungicides for the treatment of seeds or non-living substrates, from 0.1 to 1 gram of morpholinyl silane per kilogram of substrate is an effective dose.
In the preparation of dust, or wettable powder compositions, the toxicant products can be compounded with any of the finely divided solids as a carrier, such as prophyllite, talc, chalk, gypsum, fuller's earth, bentonite, attapulgite, starch, casein, gluten, or the like. In such operations, the finely divided carrier is ground or mixed with the toxicant or wet with a solution of the toxicant in a volatile organic solvent. Also, such compositions when employed as concentrates can be dispersed in water, with or without 3 the aid of dispersing agents to form spray mixtures.
Dust compositions are advantageously employed when treating seeds.
It Granular formulations are usually prepared by 8:48": impregnating a solution of the toxicant in a volatile lo 35,835-F -7- 35,835-F -7-
_I
-8organic solvent onto a bed of coarsely divided attapulgite, bentonite, diatomite, or the like.
Similarly, the toxicant products can be compounded with a suitable water-immiscible inert Sorganic liquid and a surface active dispersing agent to i produce an emulsifiable concentrate which can be further diluted with water and oil to form spray mixtures in the form of oil-in-water emulsions which may optionally contain water miscible organic co-solvents to improve the physical properties of the formulation. In such compositions, the carrier comprises an aqueous emulsion, a mixture of inert water-immiscible solvent and optional water miscible organic co-solvent, emulsifying agent, and water.
Emulsifiers which can be advantageously employed herein can be readily determined by those skilled in the art and include various nonionic, anionic, cationic and amphoteric emulsifiers, or a blend of two or more emulsifiers. Examples of nonionic emulsifiers useful in preparing the emulsifiable concentrates include the polyalkylene glycol ethers and condensation products of alkyl and aryl phenols, aliphatic alcohols, aliphatic amines or fatty acids with ethylene oxide, propylene oxide or mixtures of ethylene and propylene oxides such as the ethoxylated alkyl phenols and carboxylic esters solubilized with the polyol or polyoxyalkylene. Cationic emulsifiers Sinclude quaternary ammonium compounds and fatty amines.
Anionic emulsifiers include the oil-soluble salts calcium) of alkylaryl sulphonic acids, oil s'3 soluble salts of sulphated polyglycol ethers and appropriate salts of phosphated polyglycol ether.
35,835-F -8- 35,835-F -8- L -9- The preferred emulsifiers will depend upon the nature of the emulsifiable concentrate. For example, an emulsifiable concentrate of a compound of Formula containing 200 g/l of the compound in xylene may require a blend of an ethoxylated nonyl phenol and calcium dodecyl benzene sulphonate to function effectively whereas a similar emulsifiable concentrate of the oleate salt of a compound of Formula soluble in an aliphatic organic solvent will require a considerably different emulsification system.
Representative organic liquids which can be employed in preparing the emulsifiable concentrates of the present invention are the aromatic liquids such as xylene; propyl benzene fractions; or mixed naphthalene fractions; mineral oils substituted aromatic organic liquids such as dioctyl phthalate; kerosene; butene; dialkyl amides of various fatty acids, particularly the dimethyl amides of fatty glycols and glycol derivatives such as the n-butyl ether, ethyl ether or methyl ether of diethylene glycol, the methyl ether of triethylene glycol. Mixtures of two or more organic liquids are also often suitably employed in the preparation of the emulsifiable concentrate. The preferred organic liquids are xylene, and propyl benzene fractions, with xylene being most preferred. The surface active dispersing agents are usually employed in liquid compositions and in the amount of from 0.1 to percent by weight of the combined weight of the dispersing agent and active compound. The active compositions can also contain other compatible additaments, for example, plant growth regulators and Sother biologically active compounds used in agriculture.
35,835-F -9- L" i L_ Especially, these active compositions may contain adjuvant surfactants to enhance the deposition, wetting and penetration of the composition onto the target crop and organism. These adjuvant surfactants may optionally be employed as a component of the formulation or as a tank mix. The amount of adjuvant surfactant will vary from 0.01 to 1.0 percent v/v based on a spray-volume of water, preferably 0.05 to percent. Suitable adjuvant surfactants include 10 ethoxylated nonyl phenols, ethoxylated synthetic or natural alcohols, salts of the esters of sulphosuccinic Sacids, ethoxylated organosilicones, ethoxylated fatty i amines and blends of surfactant with mineral or 15 vegetable oils.
i In such embodiments, the compounds of the i present invention or compositions containing the same, can be advantageously employed in combination with one or more additional pesticidal compounds. Such i additional pesticidal compounds may be insecticides, nematicides, miticides, arthropodicides, or bactericides that are compatible with the compounds of the present invention in the medium selected for i 25 application and not antagonistic to the activity of the I present compounds. Accordingly, in such embodiments, the pesticidal compound is employed as a supplemental I toxicant for the same or for a different pesticidal use or as an additament. The compounds in combination can generally be present in a ratio of from 1 to 100 parts of the compound of Forumula with from 100 to 1 part of the additional compound(s).
The exact amount of the active material to be 3 applied is dependent not only on the specific active material being applied, but also on the particular 35,835-F r -11action desired, the fungal species to be controlled and the stage of growth thereof as well as the part of the plant to be contacted with the toxic active ingredient.
Thus, all of the active ingredients of the present invention and compositions containing the same may not be equally effective at similar concentrations or against the same fungal species.

3 A glass reactor equipped with a motor driven agitator, a thermometer and a water-cooled reflux condenser was charged with 315 g (2 mol) of 1-chloro-3-bromopropane. The contents of the reactor were heated to 50 0 C and 461 g (4 mol) of 2,6-dimethyl- -morpholine was gradually added. The temperature of the reaction mixture was maintained between 40 and 50 0
C
for 1 hours, at which time heating was discontinued and the reaction mixture was allowed to cool to ambient temperature. A 500 ml portion of water and 500 ml of S hexane were then added to the reaction mixture, followed by 90 g of sodium hydroxide. The organic phase of the resultant two-phase liquid was separated I and retained. The aqueous phase was shaken together 35,835-F -16-

-17with 500 ml chloroform and the chloroform phase was separated and combined with the initial organic phase.
The aqueous phase was discarded and the water present in the organic phase was removed using anhydrous magnesium sulfate. The solvents present in the liquid phase were evaporated under the reduced pressure supplied by a water aspirator. The residue was distilled under a pressure of 15 mm of mercury. The fraction boiling from 103 to 111°C (vapor temperature) was collected and weighed 366.5 g. Analysis of this fraction by vapor phase chromatography indicated that it was 95 percent pure 4-(3-chloropropyl)-2,6-dimethylmorpholine.
A glass reactor was filled with nitrogen and charged with 2 g of magnesium chips, 25 ml of anhydrous tetrahydrofuran and a few drops of methyl iodide and ethylene dibromide. When a reaction initiated a small portion of a solution containing 192 g of the product obtained above in and one liter of anhydrous tetrahydrofuran was added gradually until the reaction became self-sustaining. A 22 g portion of magnesium was then added to the reactor, following which the remainder of the aforementioned solution of 4-(3-chloropropyl)-2,6-dimethylmorpholine in tetrahydrofuran was gradually added with slow agitation. External heating was employed as required to sustain the reaction. Following completion of the i 30 Saddition, the contents of the reactor were heated to the boiling point for two hours. The reaction mixture ,i was allowed to cool under a nitrogen atmosphere. 1.7 g Sof magnesium was recovered, indicating that the reaction was 92 percent completed.

3 To a glass reactor, fitted with a motor driven agitator, thermometer, dropping funnel and water-cooled condenser, was added 29.2 g dimethylchlorosilane and 100 ml diethyl ether. While cooling the reactor with San ice-bath, 0.3 moles of the Grignard reagent prepared in above was added dropwise via the dropping funnel over a period of two hours while keeping the reactor temperature between 10 and 20 0 C. The reaction mixture was allowed to stir overnight. To the reaction mixture 20 was then added 300 ml of a 10 percent aqueous solution of citric acid with vigorous stirring. The mixture was transferred to a separatory funnel and the organic layer separated and evaporated to constant weight, leaving 68.0 g of a golden yellow liquid. On distil- 25 lation of this liquid under vacuum, 60.9 g (93 percent) of a light yellow liquid boiling at 47-500C at 0.2 mm was obtained. Infrared spectroscopy showed the presence of strong Si-H absorption and the NMR spectrum was consistent with the expected structure.
Step C: Reaction of p-chlorostyrene with dimethyl-3- -(2,6-dimethyl-4-morpholino)propylsilane To a glass reactor fitted with a magnetic Sstirrer, thermometer and water-cooled reflux condenser was charged with 10.0 g of dimethyl-3-(2,6-dimethyl-4n~r .:I .5835 3-F 18effective in eliminating established barley powdery 35,835-F i -19- -morpholino)propylsilane, 6.4 g of p-chlorostyrene and 0.1 g chloroplatinic acid in 1 ml isopropanol. The reaction mass was heated to 1000C with stirring and kept at 100-108C for half an hour, then cooled to room temperature. Low boiling impurities and unreacted starting materials were removed by distillation at 0.2 mm in an oil bath at 128'C. The residue was a light brown liquid and weighed 15.0 g. Analysis showed the compound to contain 8.0 percent silicon, 9.2 percent and 3.5 percent nitrogen.(Tecluad values Of silicon, chlorine and nitrogen for the compound are 7.9 percent, 10.0 percent and 3.9 percent, respectively.) The NMR spectrum was consistent with expected structure (Compound 1).

While maintaining an atmosphere of nitrogen in the reactor, 64.0 g of 3-chloropropyldimethylchlorosilane (prepared in Step A above) was added dropwise to the reactor over a period of minutes, keeping the temperature between 35-40cC. After the addition was complete, the mixture was stirred for one hour while allowing the reaction temperature to drop to ~30 0 C. To this mixture was added 400 ml of a percent aqueous ammonium chloride solution. The organic layer was separated and dried over magnesium 4 sulfate. After evaporation of solvent, the residue, weighing 113.6 g, was distilled under vacuum. The fraction boiling at 110-120°C at 0.5 mm was collected.
It weighed 93.2 g and was a colorless, oily liquid of refractive index 1.5088 at 23°C. Analysis showed the compound to contain 67.4 percent carbon, 9.2 percent 35,835-F -21- -u -22hydrogen and 13.0 percent chlorine. Theory for the compound is 67.0 percent carbon, 9.4 percent hydrogen and 13.2 percent chlorine. Gas chromatography showed the compound to be -90 percent pure.
